Hi all,
Registrars should not be moved into a position that they have to explain
operational, commercial and technical decisions to the public on why
they are not migrating right away or why it is taking X amount of time.
Before we know it spins out of control, seems a phishing site is
nowadays good enough to crash companies stock value into the ground.
http://www.slate.com/blogs/moneybox/2015/07/14/twitter_stock_pops_after_fake_bloomberg_report_of_acquisition_offer.html
For me a general progress bar is enough for the total of registrars. If
there is reason to worry based on that progress then involved parties
can zoom in and check with the individual registrars to see what is up
and then act on the information if required.
In my opinion this is transparent enough.
